Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . made available on "Looney Tunes Golden Collection, Volume 3, Disc 1" voiced by one of the "40 girls" painting Warner Bros. Cartoons in 1942 plus one of the West Coasters always around to blab on DVD audio tracks states that Looney Tunes were always topical to their times, with many arcane references to Popular Culture hopelessly lost upon all Future Generations. Fortunately for us, this built-in obsolescence was off-set by uncanny, Nostradamus-like prognostications for the Future. THE WABBIT WHO CAME TO SUPPER, for instance, has many allusions to the current events of 2016. If you fast-forward to the 5:33 mark, for instance, you will see an unclothed Donald J. Duck (covered only by the red picnic tablecloth in his lap, and decked out in a gray beard to emphasize that this geriatric geezer is well past "middle" age) pointing at a completely nude red-headed White House Intern, as he orders another pizza for their Tete-A-Tete in the Rose Garden. Then, about 7:21 into WABBIT, Bugs Bunny is startled by Elmer Trump, as the hare is bare except for an orange brassiere and matching panties (with a convenience crotch for "his" bushy tail). In the next scene, scads of baby bunnies are delivered to Elmer's White House, suggesting that Trump may usurp George Washington's place as "The Father of Our Country."

tavm In this Friz Freeling directed cartoon short, Elmer stops trying to hunt for Bugs in the forest with his dogs after receiving a telegram telling that his Uncle Louie will give him three million dollars if Elmer stops harming animals-especially "wabbits". Well, when Bugs hears of this, you know he'll annoy the "fat boy" constantly! (Mr. Fudd was drawn on the heavyset side during this period)...If you love to see Bugs at his most obnoxious, this is the cartoon for you! Many gags are probably familiar to you if you've seen a ton of Warner Bros. cartoons. There's one scene when Bugs gets thrown out and he does a hysterical routine that has him breaking the fourth wall and saying, "This could get me the Academy Award!" On that note, I highly recommend The Wabbit Who Came to Supper.

ccthemovieman-1 It's still odd for me to watch these old Bugs Bunny cartoons and see an elongated Bugs and a huge Elmer Fudd. Nonetheless, that's what we get here as Elmer is racing through the forest with a shotgun after Bugs. By the way - what kind of hunting outfit is that: a bowler hat, reddish-pink shirt and green tie???!Just as Bugs is about to get it, a telegram boy on a scooter arrives with a telegram for Elmer, stating that Uncle Louie is giving him three million dollars! But there is a "P.S." that says "You don't get one cent if hurt any animals, especially rabbits."You just know Bugs, who is reading this over Elmer's shoulder, is going to make life miserable for him (at least in the next six minutes of this eight-minute cartoon). The rabbit wastes no time, either. By the time Elmer races home, the "wascally wabbit" is already in his shower! r Bugs knows a good thing when he sees it - blackmail, to get food and other goodies (or "I'll call Uncle Louie").I almost felt sorry for the poor sap Fudd as Bugs puts on his "Academy Award" dramatic performance but, in the end, both guys wind up losers as the cartoon writers used the familiar "taxes" bit on the inheritance.Overall, the humor was too dated and not really ready-for-prime time stuff (the 1950s) but the restoration job on this Golden Collection disc was tremendous. That artwork made Elmer's house look pretty impressive. He might have been a dumb dodo but he had nice- looking furnished house.

slymusic Directed by Friz Freleng, "The Wabbit Who Came to Supper" is an excellent Warner Bros. cartoon starring that celebrated duo Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd, voiced by, respectively, Mel Blanc and Arthur Q. Bryan. When this cartoon was made, Bugs and Elmer were not yet fully developed in terms of their physical appearance (e.g., Bugs' face and Elmer's weight), but they WERE fully developed in terms of their comic personalities. Bugs is ever the prankster, minding his own business until someone comes along and gets in his way. And Elmer is the dopey, stupid hunter easily taken advantage of by Bugs. In "The Wabbit Who Came to Supper," Elmer receives a telegram from his Uncle Louie regarding a three-million-dollar inheritance, which Elmer will lose if he harms any animals, especially WABBITS! So what does Bugs do? He moves in with Elmer...uninvited! My favorite highlights from this short include the following. As Elmer chases Bugs around the house, the clock strikes midnight and Bugs tricks Elmer into believing it is New Year's Day; they both burst into a chorus of "Auld Lang Syne" before Elmer realizes that the month is July! When Elmer reads Uncle Louie's telegram (to the tune of "We're in the Money"), all of his hunting dogs have frighteningly mean looks on their faces as they bare their teeth at Bugs. While invading Elmer's shower, Bugs sings "You're Just an Angel in Disguise," and as he struggles with one particular high note, he steps out of the shower and walks towards the piano, striking the note that is giving him trouble. And when Elmer sings "Rock-a-Bye Baby" while holding Bugs in his arms, the wise-guy wabbit tells him to swing it! In closing, "The Wabbit Who Came to Supper" is a quite an outstanding Bugs Bunny/Elmer Fudd cartoon. The moral is this: if you are ever about to receive an inheritance, don't shoot any wabbits!
